Even the cops know, to catch a criminal you got to think like a criminal - or drive the same car as they do :D
In Australia, especially in cities of Sydney and Melbourne, the Rexy's are the car of choice for your average ram raider or getaway driver - uncatchable... until recently:eek:

I agree that that would be freaky if the Australian police used Impreza's but the "Police" on the hood looks very suspicious.

that picture there you posted is soooo photoshopped... i'm not saying the police don't use them there but that picture you can tell so much, the police on the hood and on the side doesn't look right and also the lights on the top are at a weird angle they're not straight across like they should be

Now that you have pointed it out GS, with closer inspection, it does look like a photoshop job. But the others are definately not. But we do have WRX cop cars here in OZ... the best looking cop cars I've ever seen (:confused: can't believe I like the look of a cop car:D).

also the lights on top are out of focus compared to the rest of the picture. sorry but cameras do not selectively fuzz certain parts of pictures that are at the same distance. oh well. On a particularily sad note about police though, here in the US many very fast cars that are siezed by tyhe police are either auctioned, which is good, or given to undercover and unmarked cops, which is very very bad. I have a friend who's father is undercover cop that drives a very nice modded mercedes. scariest of these cars that i have heard about was a jaguar that was rigged to run at night over the mexican border that had matte black paint, no headlights, and had nightvision built into it. now it belongs to a cop.

OK. Let's set a few things straight. I live in Sydney Australia. The NSW Police DID use Subaru WRXs as Highway Patrol and pursuit vehicles for a time a couple of years ago. A fleet of around 12. They have since been withdrawn from duty. The spate of ram-raiding WRXs and getaway WRXs ended with the fitting of immobilizers in the 1996 or 7 (can't remember) model. Before this, they were easily stolen, escaped, chopped, rammed whatever and even the police call them the 'stolen generation'.

Whether the photos real or not is academic. The point is there were WRX cop cars in NSW. My mate got pulled over by one.
